Re: Chicago Pre-Draft Camp Measurements
Well, the big difference is that they are finally measureing the players in socks.
Measuring in shoes is just stupid. For one thing, a player can stack two insoles inside a particulary thick pair of shoes, and add over 2" to their height. And you know rosters are always listed with fractions rounded up.
So no, none of these guys are shorter than you thought, other than perhaps Akindele and Omar Thomas, who appear to have been real good liars.
By the way, I'm 6-5 in socks and I spent a few minutes next to the Raptor's Rafael Araujo. He is listed as 6-11. There is no way he is more than 6-8 in socks.
Standing reach. I want to know standing reach!
